    i have a husky wxe 250 when i brought it it was running but was rough with no power i rid it about 3 miles then it cut out and wouldnt start
    i stripped the carb cleaned it twice
    new air filter and plug the spark is very bright and when you take the plug out its wet with fuel so it must be getting fuel and it is sparking
    its full of compression but isnt even trying to start it doesnt cough or anything just turns over ???
    any ideas appreciated

    My 125 revs up when it starts... I just keep pushing the kill button to keep it under control. Once it runs like this for a minute or so, it runs properly. Did you check your reeds? Could be running lean due to an air leak ... cracked boot or perhaps something in the carb.

    Sounds like a vacuum leak.... I have an 09 wr250 that I accidentally tore the intake boot removing the carb (or re-installing it) and it acted the same way....
